If it is assigned to a sensor tank, the sensor can be used to attack enemies by selecting the sensor and targeting an enemy.Īll artillery assigned to the sensor will attack its target. Notice that the artillery can be very far away-only the sensor turret needs to get within range.

To unassign a unit from a sensor, the easiest way is to right-click it, then tell it to move somewhere. Multiple units can be selected with ctrl+ click, and moving them all.Ī CB (Counter-Battery) tower or turret is used similarly to a standard sensor however, it serves a specialized purpose: To counter-attack enemy artillery. Normal sensor towers will direct your artillery to attack whatever is nearby, but CB towers will direct your artillery to attack any artillery attacking you, even if they are further away from you than other targets. A sensor tower cannot be ordered to target something specific they automatically target enemies.A standard sensor turret has a range of 12 a standard sensor tower has a range of 16 (all other sensor turrets have the same range as their corresponding tower).Sensor towers and sensor units have several major differences: If you have both a CB tower and a sensor tower, artillery structures will attack CB targets first, and only other targets once you are no longer being bombarded by enemy artillery.Ī VTOL CB sensor does the same thing, except to VTOLs assigned to it.


The Command Center (HQ) is also considered a standard sensor tower, while the Satellite Uplink Center is also considered a Wide Spectrum sensor tower. In addition to their usual functionality, they can also be used as the corresponding sensor tower (for instance, you can assign artillery to them).
